“Audio quality is ABSOLUTELY terrible!! They could've used 2 tin cans and a string and the audio quality would be better than this! Such a really great idea wasted on 2 guys laughing at their own inside jokes. COntent is zero stars. Give this idea to a professional. You are out of your...”Read full review »

“I downloaded a bunch of these, getting excited about the concept - but after trying four separate shows, I just can’t listen to any more.
Not only do the contributors use the worst microphones in history, but there’s background music playing constantly through the reviews. It’s very hard to...”Read full review »

“This pod takes first impressions and bumps it up a notch. They watch the first episode of TV shows you may or may not know to have a laugh and spare you from watching it yourself.”

“Basically, two Brits laugh their way through this podcast, mostly at their own jokes, making fun of iconic American television programs. Three stars strictly for the nostalgia value.”

“The premise of this podcast is great: talk about the pilots of TV shows over the years. The hosts are very easy to listen to. Unfortunately, under their discussion, they constantly play a really short loop of music that moves quickly from distracting to annoying. I also find that sometimes...”Read full review »
“Sounds like it was recorded with a reel to reel in someone’s bathtub. Add to this annoying, overbearing, goofy background (more like foreground) music; the same you’d hear on a commercial for a kitchen disinfectant. The final ingredient to this mess is the tripe two nitwits spew, and you have a...”Read full review »

“I love this show. I have no idea where on earth they find the stuff they review, but I am very grateful that they do. They guys pick through the obscure, and sometimes one-off TV shows analysing their content and critiquing the product. It's all done with mych love, even when things go a bit...”Read full review »

“If you want a hear a genuine discussion on the lift off of new and old TV series then this is the best you can get for a podcast that encapsulates this. Hosts put in a fun, funny and interesting conversations on a whole host of different TV pilots. Great stuff”
